Where is the best place to buy Crappie Nibbles for the best price - on-line or a certain store ??

Answer: I usually find the best price online for crappie baits, it usually runs two dollars more in bait shops.

Answer: walmart online or here usuallu if you watch. i always go compare the two bc they ajust their price to walmart usually bc they are the cheapest. i just prefer amazon`s ups service compared to walmarts stupid $35 must spend and fedex.

Answer: quit your whining

Will these catch 5 pound crappie?

Answer: If there’s a 5 pound crappie in the water

Answer: I did not have any luck with this bait.

Answer: Didn't have much luck with this

Are these vegan?

Answer: NO. Fish are not vegan.. there is a form of meat by product. Either shrimp or some other fish…

Answer: Nope. They take the scraps of every type of meat possible and grind it up to make these delicious little fish bait balls that the fish can’t stand not to eat because they are so delicious and scrumptious.

Answer: I don't know and really don't care, but the fish you catch with it sure as heck isn't.

Do you combine items for shipping?

Answer: Hi,

is this the full size jar? or the smaller half jar version

Answer: It's the full sized jar.

Answer: full size

Answer: Full size

Answer: FULL SIZE

Does this have an expiration date?

Answer: I couldn't find any expiration date on the bottle. Mine are over 3 years old and still pliable, but I never took the seal top completely off and reseal it after every use when I tighten down the lid.

Answer: I've kept unopened bottles for a year with no problem by keeping the bottle in a dark, relatively cool spot in a cabinet. Occasionally, I will have an opened bottle dry out and once bought a bottle in a retail store that was already dry and hard when I opened it. However, all is not lost even in those cases. I have found that if I wad up and dampen a small amount of paper towel (bigger than a pea) and place the damp (not soaking) wad inside the bottle and seal the lid, it will rehydrate the nibbles almost to their original state. VERY dry nibbles may require more than one treatment.

Made in the USA?

Answer: Yes they are.

whats the ingredients list specifically? Thanks

Answer: I don’t know but crappie love them

How long do they stay on the hook? assuming they dissolve instead of a fish biting into it.

How many is there

Answer: HOW MANY WHAT IS WHERE?? WON'T FISH FOR CRAPPIE WITHOUT THEM.WORKS TERRIFIC FOR ME,WOULDN'T CHANGE

How do you store these?

Answer: Normal room or garage temp will suffice. I store mine in the garage with other fish/tackle items.

Answer: I leave mine in garage next to tackle box. Buddy of mine does same. No problem with them the following year

Answer: I just close jar back tight and put them in the house after I finish fishing. They last a long time.

Can someone tell me how to use this? im new to fish and i want to bring my 3 year old fishing. what is the best rig? if possible detail w. picture. th

Answer: Just put it on a bare hook

So, does this stuff actually glow (in the dark if activated by a UV source) or is Berkely using a bit of hyperbole in the name...?

Answer: Do not know about that.

How can a purchase an item that is an "add on item" if I dont have 25 worth of stuff I need to buy?? I really want the item..

Answer: ask amazon

Do these work for fresh water or salt water fish? Or both?

Answer: Fresh water for sure but knot real sure about salt water

Answer: Works well in fresh water. Never tried it in salt

Answer: I only used them in fresh water. I would assume they would work in salt water

Answer: I don’t know about salt water but they work really well in fresh water

Answer: I use it for fresh water fish like crappie and blue gill with a light weight jig. I imagine it would work on any small hook. ( small being a key word)

Answer: Hi,

Okay, I'm confused. Are these actual bait or do you throw them in the water for chum then fish with another bait/jig?

Answer: They are actual bait. For crappie, of course, you use a very small hook that these are perfect for. I also will also use them for chum as well.

Answer: There actual bait. I use them for blue gill, crappie, and perch.

Answer: They can be used either way. I actually bait my hook with them only

Answer: You tip your jig hook with a crappie nibble and they attract more crappie

Answer: Put them on ur hook. Don’t chum

Answer: Just put one or two what ever you prefer on your gig or hook

Answer: Yes, add a jiffy. It’s a sent enhancement. Works too well.

How many should be put on a hook?

Answer: You use a very small hook for crappie, so one is all you need.

Answer: Using jigs cover the hook

Answer: 1 or 2 on a crappie jig will do it. work great.

Answer: I just use one.

Answer: I just cover the tip.

Is this the same size as the one on the berkley website? These are twice the price, which is why I'm asking.

Answer: Purchasing from Berkley is apparently a better deal than amazon. The amazon bottle is .9 oz at $4.29, while the ones on Berkley website are about 1.0 to 1.1 oz. at almost $10.00. Not enough difference for me to pay twice the amount. Good luck.

Do these need to be refrigerated?

Answer: No, they do not need refrigeration.

Answer: No. It seems that keeping the lid on tight is sufficient. Bluegills don’t care from one summer to the next.

Answer: no just keep the lid tight or they wlli dry out

Answer: No, just keep dry.

Answer: No just close tight

Answer: NO

Answer: No

Answer: no, but I have caught nothing on these.

whats the best color to use? in water that is not super clear only can see down 4-5ft

Answer: Hey Chase! This is a tough question as there are so many variables (time of year, water temp, weather forecast, fish population, etc) that come in to affect. We would recommend the chartreuse as it seems to be a fish favorite, however, the hot pink can really work well sometimes...especially on the days where they just aren't biting. Have a great day!

Answer: We have tried the pink and the Chartreuse, and the Chartreuse has worked the best for us. Good luck!

Answer: I think it all depends on where you are and the time of year. I have the same visibility you do and the crappies seem to like the yellow ones. I also like to stick them on the hook while using a fake minnow. Just to add a bit of stinky to attract the fish.

Answer: Not sure for you. Yellow worked for me

Product reviews of Berkley Powerbait Crappie Nibbles Dough Bait Glow

S.Warrick : Bad bait. As in poor.

These would not stay on the hook. Just soft without texture to hold on. I will not buy ever again.

HenryK. : These Always Work!

Berkly makes some of the best products for fishing. This one works extremely well from my experience for panfish, crappie, etc. It always inspires those fish to bite! I tag one on with a small plastic worm or by itself.

Kelly Y. : Amazing bait!

This is probably one of the best baits I've ever used. I was catching gigantic bluegill hand over fist and actually had fisherman come up and asked me what I was using. I shared the love!

Boby : NOT AS STRONG AS ITS ADVERTISED COMING OUT OF THE HOOK EASILY.

WASN'T ABLE TO CATCH ANY FISH WITH THAT.
NOT AS STRONG AS ITS ADVERTISED COMING OUT OF THE HOOK EASILY.

JoshV : Not one single bite with this although the place is full of crappie, bluegills and bass.

Didn’t work for myself nor my brother on several occasions at different fishing spots. I did however catch crappie on a lure.

Kenneth Reilley : Worked great on bluegill, but...

Bluegill swarmed my hook the first time I dunked this bait into the water, but they picked it clean before any of them actually took the hook. I know this is crappie bait, but I can't help what's attracted to it... the bluegill looked more like a school of piranha!

I don't know if it was just my jar or if it's an issue with this type of bait, but mine is a little on the dry side... so much so that it's hard to get it to ball up on the hook and stay long enough to do anything -- anything other that whip the bluegill into a frenzy, that is.

It clearly works so I gave it four stars. I'll work out the kinks eventually.

B. Durrence : Replace every cast, but does work

They work but be prepared to replace another one each cast. Any “nibble” results in either catching a fish or stolen bait. Usually can’t reuse because the fish eats it before reeling it in.

bryan burks : awsome bait

These work wonders. i like to pack a bunch of them into a children's medicine syringe and then you can push them into the baits where they dont come off as easy. Get multiple fish on the same bait before having to replace

Thomas vanderlaan : Let em dry a little.

These things slay panfish, though bluegill like them more than the Crappie do.

Twitchell, PhD Voc Ed : Catches fish

Works great even when the crappie aren't much interested in biting. Maybe a little too soft. It takes more care to put them on the hook properly than it does with corn kernels.

Peggy : Fish LOVE this bait!!!

These are fantastic to use with jigs! We immediately get bites when it's cast into the water and have consistently brought in bluegill, crappie and even trout!! These white ones work best for us and are our go-to bait. The yellow and neon green nibbles aren't as effective for us. Best thing we've added to our fishing tackle box!!!

M. Harrison : Some anglers swear by this...

Honestly, I have not tried this yet, but I bought it because my trusted advisors swear by it! I'm very hopeful.

Susie Curl : Best for Crappie fishing ????

My husband love these for Crappie Fishing, uses them all the time. Found better price on Amazon than local stores.

Twitchell, PhD Voc Ed : Catches fish

Works great even when the crappie aren't much interested in biting. Maybe a little too soft. It takes more care to put them on the hook properly than it does with corn kernels.

G S : It didn't work for me so far

Yet to catch a bluegill with it... I gave it a few try. I will come back with n update....

Alakai : Very small and stuck together

These baits seem to work okay even though I have not caught anything on this color yet. Problem with this jar is that some of them are stuck together like old marshmallows. Mostly okay so I did not want to return or anything, they smell okay and seem to be good in the water, just stuck together and they are not supposed to be that way

Tony : new addition to my tackle bag

Wow! Tried on one of those days where nothing was biting, not even on live bait. Squeeze a few of these on a bare hook, cast, a minute or two later...bam! Caught some nice, slab size panfish over the next hour.

Jeff Kaos : Works Really Well and Worth the Money.

These things work pretty well for catching pan fish but beware: they're pretty easy for "thieves" to get away with. Their density is about the same as a tiny marshmallow and since they're lightweight small fish can nibble them off the hook before a bigger fish have a chance to get them. But this only proves how well they actually attract fish. And since they're fairly cheap and you get a lot in a single jar it's not that big of a deal. And I've been fishing at a lot of smaller lakes from shore and near spawning areas so there's a ton of young fish so this is probably the main reason I've been experiencing so much bait theft with these. On the other hand my 6 year old has brought in at least half a dozen nice size sunfish and bluegill using these and even more "smallies".

Wayne Kaauamo : Great for catching bait fish for bass

This bait definitely works for catching panfish and bluegill bait fish for bass fishing. It comes off fairly quickly if used on a single barb hook as you normally would use for crappie. So I put it on the smallest tri-hook I have in order to catch my bait fish that I then use for bass, etc. It stays well if mushed into the small tri-hook. But I don't plan on using it to catch crappie because the minnows take it off too quickly. But still, it is a very convenient product to have in your tackle box.

Mark Buck : I use these as chum...

While it is pretty expensive way to chum my ice fishing hole (20-30 feet of water), I use these as soon as I fish. Drop down a couple of dozen pellets or more and they slowly dissolve putting a scent trail in the water and attracting fish. To be honest, I have used them for bait, but never had a lot of luck with them. They dissolve slowly, so they work for some time. I use an underwater camera and in Lake Superior, with it's crystal clear water, you can see the fish as clear as can be. You can see many come in following the scent trail in the current. I don't always catch them, but this attracts many more fish to my area than my fishing partners experience. They too are now using this as chum.

Wogis : value bait

Did not catch any crappie but the turtles sure loves it

Ryan L Paul : Blue gill love it

Got this for my kids because they were not catching anything. Blue gill, sunnys love it. Even caught some small trout.

Mightyq : Didn't work

I used this to fish for blue gills and crappie and did not even garner any bites. Hot dogs work better.

Avvy : Good for blue gill, use minnows for crappie

I got this to take my little daughter fishing for perch (blue gill, pumpkin seed). She landed 5 in 25 minutes! It gets soggy fast but put a fresh one on every 5 minutes. I keep it in my garage fridge when not in use. Easier than trying to keep worms alive. It melts in the water releasing an attractive scent; just use one at a time in a very small hook.

Ryan : Highly recommend

Amazing product! First cast with a bobber and two nuggets and i brought up a nive crappie follwed by two yellow perch and a crappie. Nuggets are tiny but work great.

Lego Grandma : Old and dried out

I love crappie nibbles, but I sure these were probably sitting in warehouse for too long. The picture is of a container I bought at the local store (on the right) and the Amazon purchase on the left. Both containers are in opened and upsidedown. I had bought two from Amazon and when I used them, they definitely didn't attract the fish as well either. Still debating whether to go through the hassle of returning them. Complete garbage

Ryan L Paul : Blue gill love it

Got this for my kids because they were not catching anything. Blue gill, sunnys love it. Even caught some small trout.

Miles Morales : Bass seem to like it more that crappie

My live crickets attracted more attention than this stuff. Bass seem to like it more that crappie.

G S : It didn't work for me so far

Yet to catch a bluegill with it... I gave it a few try. I will come back with n update....

Acito : Really works!

Wow! My 11 yr old daughter started catching fish after fish once we tried this bait! It really works! As soon as the line hit the water the fish started biting.

Jay : Not Bad

Work for what I need it for, just beware it smells really strong.

Aamazon real review : Dont work

Dont work. Everyone else caught fish and I had these no fish

Tamika C. : They work!

I caught my first crappie with this, and a worm. I was bluegill fishing and decided to use one of the crappie nibbles to entice bluegill. What a surprise when a big crappie hammered it right away!

Mike : Meh

Not impressed fishing in VA off the piers and caught nothing not even a nibble. I waited a few months to post this but this product might be best for boat fishing

Mark Buck : I use these as chum...

Craig Reinehr : OK product

The bait does attract fish but it does not stay on the lure well. Falls off easily.

Tony : new addition to my tackle bag

P C : Crappie nibbles

Crappie nibbles work great they make the fish take an extra taste and then you got him

F. Phillips : True believer

I don't go crappie fishing without these. I discovered them about 15 years ago. I had fished most of the day and had only a few to show for my efforts. My dad and brother, on the other hand, had a boat full on the same lake at the same time.

After making fun of me for a few minutes, they passed me about half a jar of these. Before I left the lake that evening, I had a box full, from the same spots I had fished earlier with no results.

Since that day, I've kept several jars of these in my tackle box at all times. I'm a believer, and I won't go without them.

Amazon Customer : Great Texture

The texture with these is just right for a clean bait or attraction. We have had success with them.
(Just a wife and husband enjoying our days)

steve : Five Stars

They work!!

HenryK. : These Always Work!

mxbrad : Must have for any Panfisherman

I don't know what it is.. but after spawn crappie tend to get harder to fish. When I put on of these on my hooks they hit it like crazy. Good stuff!

Bill : Crappie love em

We love these nibblets. So do the crappie. We have always had great luck on the Chartruisse Color

mxbrad : Must have for any Panfisherman

I don't know what it is.. but after spawn crappie tend to get harder to fish. When I put on of these on my hooks they hit it like crazy. Good stuff!

Great product : Guaranteed to catch fish

I use these for my 6 and 3 year old boys off our dock to catch bluegill, sunfish and crappie. Easy enough for our 3 year old to put these nibbles on the hook.

Ryan : Highly recommend

Amazing product! First cast with a bobber and two nuggets and i brought up a nive crappie follwed by two yellow perch and a crappie. Nuggets are tiny but work great.

Kenny : this works better than the dough

Hello Amazon,
I don't shop Amazon products that often now, please disable my Prime membership auto-renewal, thank you.
Kenny

bryan burks : awsome bait

William F Huff II : Fish go for it.

Wouldn't interest me if I were a fish, but the fish go for it.
